Choosing a first birthday party theme can be super fun, but also overwhelming. There are so many great options to choose from for your soon-to-be one year old’s birthday. It also can get very expensive… FAST! You can easily surpass your budget from all the decorations, cake, balloons, food, favors, etc.
My daughter turned one this year and after browsing Pinterest I knew how easy it was to get carried away and go way beyond my budget.
The first birthday theme I chose was ‘First Trip Around The Sun’ and here is why:
1.) I loved all the rainbow & sunshine boho decor. It is perfect for a little girl’s birthday!
2.) There are so many affordable, great decorations for this theme on Etsy and Amazon to make your little one’s day memorable.
3.) A lot of the decor can be custom and DIY so you can make it personable and meaningful.
Below are my favorite first birthday party decor finds I found on Amazon & Etsy for my daughter’s First Trip Around The Sun.
